Off road mode

An adapted low speed mode that increases the car's traction when driving in difficult off road conditions, on steep hills, and on a poor surface.

The Off-road drive mode provides high ground clearance*, light steering, enhanced all-wheel drive* and activated low speed control function with hill descent control. This provides enhanced engine braking, which makes it possible to increase or reduce the speed of the car on steep hills by using only the accelerator pedal, without using the foot brake.

The speed is controlled using the accelerator pedal. When the accelerator pedal is released, the car slows down to creep, regardless of the gradient of the hill and without the need for the foot brake to be used.

The brake lights are switched on when the car is braked/speed is reduced. The driver can also use the foot brake to reduce creep or to stop the car.

Remember the following:
  • The mode is only available at low speeds, up to 40 km/h (25 mph). Off road drive mode is deactivated if the speed is exceeded.

 Note

Off road mode is not designed to be used on public roads.
